In our diet, Dietary Fibers, as exogenous bulk-producing agents represents a group of carbohydrates or carbohydrate-containing compounds, are vegetable substances not digestible by the enzymes of the alimentary tract, which may be derived from plant cell walls and from the non-structural polsaccharides in natural foods.

In our diet, Dietary Fiber, although not considered essential nutrient in our body proper, may be an essential nutrient for our gastrointestinal system.

Fiber comes in two forms: soluble (it dissolves in water) and insoluble (it does not dissolve in water).
Insoluble fibers include cellulose, lignin and some hemicelluloses, and are found in foods such as wheat bran, corn bran, celery, and the skins of fruits and root vegetables.

Insoluble fiber helps to reduce the risk of intestinal cancers, and it helps prevent constipation and diverticulitis by absorbing toxins from foods, and reducing the production of bacterial toxins in the GI tract.

Most plant foods supply both the soluble and insoluble forms, and the diet should include a balance of both forms to get the different benefits they provide.

In our body, Detoxification is a term that refers to the removal of toxins from the body. The best place to start is usually with a colon cleanse, because without a clean colon the body cannot eliminate the toxins from the other tissues and organs. The colon is the bodies first defense for toxic substances. cleansing is what you can do to help your body detoxify more thoroughly.

In our body, Detoxification is a necessary function that our bodies naturally performs to keep it free of poison. It is a regular, internal process of hygiene that helps keep us healthy.

Detox is an abbreviated form for detoxification, a natural and continuous process your body uses to purify itself of harmful substances. Detoxification means cleaning the blood. It does this mainly by removing impurities from the blood in the liver, where toxins are processed for elimination.

Detoxification is the body's natural process of eliminating and neutralizing toxic materials from cells, organs and the bloodstream. The body processes toxins through the kidneys, liver, urine, feces, breath and sweat.

The body has its own natural healing system and detoxification enhances this system.

The body eliminates toxins through the kidneys, intestines, lungs, lymph and skin. However, when this system is compromised, impurities are not properly filtered and every cell in the body is adversely affected.
